Summary

Fatalistic teenager George Zingavoy is a master at just barely getting by. In fact, he's practically turned it into an art form--making it through the entire school year without doing a shred of work. But when George meets a beautiful and complicated girl named Sally, he discovers a kindred spirit who turns his slacker world upside down. Their quirky and unexpected romance may just inspire George to do the unthinkable--get off his butt and chase after his dreams.
